You can easily zoom in on each performer or specific area of the full screen image to create different shots to switch.

KMU-200 Live Music Production with Eva and the Vagabond Tales

Eva and the Vagabond Tales is a folk band based in Los Angeles who have been playing together since the mid-2010’s. The Coronavirus pandemic has greatly affected social gatherings and has limited live musical performances all over the world. Before the pandemic, this thriving band practiced, wrote lovely, catchy songs, and they played to crowds of fans on a weekly basis. But now because gatherings became illegal, live performances had to stop. How would the Vagabonds reach their fans now?

Using the KMU-200, the band was able to take the concert to Facebook Live and Instagram, where they're able to re-connect with their local audience and gain new fans around the globe.

Vertical Solution Book

Vertical video (9:16) is exploding on nearly every social media platform, including Facebook, YouTube, Instagram (IGTV) and Snapchat. Producing live vertical content on these platforms is especially attractive to producers since followers can be notified in real-time when events go live. Smart phones have been used for creating vertical content, but there are limitations due to just having a single camera angle. To create more engaging vertical content multiple camera angles with live switching will take your productions to the next level.
